The weather has turned cold and rainy. Christy has been scared at night and had to stay home on Monday as she hadn’t slept much the night before. Amy was sick on Monday. The chickens are laying eggs now. The girls had their swimming carnival today, despite the rain. Both did well. I found a lost dog – named Billy – we reunited him with his owner. Kevin isn’t home tonight so Amy and I get to pick what we want to watch on TV. Made 2 lots of soup today so guess what’s for dinner….

Okay, so I’ve been a bit of a bad blogger but thought I might share a bit of what’s going on in my life right now.

* I’ve been doing LOTS of exercise – Red Carpet Ready Workouts most days, riding my bike (with the girls to school and back every morning & afternoon) and walking the dogs. And I’m getting muscles I’ve never had before.

* I’ve rediscovered YOGA. I loved it back in high school and thanks to Kath Eats Real Food I discovered yogadownload.com. So much fun. I esp. love doing some gentle hatha at the end of my workout.

* I’m back into scrapbooking almost daily – which I love!!!

* I’ve been following Flylady again and trying to get my home in better order

* I’ve been eating healthy, nutrious meals (most of the time).

* We’re busy in the afternoons with after school activities so I’m working hard to keep organised and on top of things.

* Our local basketball team – The Hawks- won’t be competing next year – so sad. Only one more game to play.

* Picked up some great books from the library (that  I had requested they buy) – River Cottage Family Cookbook and The Simple Living Guide. Now to find time to read them.

* In the process of transforming the junk room into a useable study/spare room.

Yesterday Kevin celebrated his 38th Birthday. The girls organised a special breakfast for him.

We also went to dinner with Nan & Pop to a local Chinese Resturant.

And lastly we had a birthday cake.
